We have mu in the forum threads this will only be for torrents so you have both choices (:

I like the idea of having torrent searching available on here - I typically download using torrents after finding a series that looks interesting here, though I do still +rep those who posted uploads.

I, like blu, am also curious whether it will just be linking the torrent or if it will also have seed/leech ratios, since that's fairly important info if you're going to be pulling the torrent. Not essential, but still handy.

hmm ;s i would ask premaker if he can edit the scrip and add that part but it was simply just for submitting links, that is all. Originally u were suppose to submit mu,rs etc... links not torrent but i like the torrent idea so that nm have both torrent and direct links (:

Wow... that would be GOLDEN... but yeah I agree this will increase the amount of leechers... that could be reeeeaaal bad if it got abused.

i guess you gotta weigh out the pros and cons with that...

But then again... i personally don't find it difficult to look for anime/games that i'm looking for. It really doesn't take THAT much time....

only if you wanna stalk someone and find out how they look and all their posts.... then mayb that's hard to do ;p

there's a lot of good torrent sites that already do what you're talking about, such as This allows you to:
- search several trackers at once
- provides a list of files inside the torrent
- boxes for passwords, comments, etc
- shows seeder/leecher ratios
- and gives categories (not always used correctly)

It'd probably be easier if, instead of having a script just for the site, you had a way of copying the information from existing sites and pasting it here on an hourly basis...or sumthin. Having oodles of info would be really cool, but then, people could always just post links to the torrent's listing on another site.


As far as megaupload, rapidshare goes, having:
~ Title
~ File Size
~ Media Content
~ Link
and having it all be selectively searchable would really, really rock. To solve the problem of people not getting thanks and reps, it would probably be better if, once an entry is made, a new thread automatically pops up under/above it on the same page. Also, if such a medai-thread-combo were to be done, having the postings automatically load into existing forum rooms would prevent areas from becoming stagnant.
Asking for all this, though, could risk treating pretmaker like a pizza shop. Sorry about that. I know you already decided against doing the stuff for rs, mu, but figured it deserved to be said anyway.

I need to read the noob guide again

Linking to other sites is forbidden.


Oh, it's only a search engine...
